you are running an mp3 ecu, which for boost is typically not a good idea. it advances the timing too far even with high octane fuel to avoid detonation while in boost. if you are running a standalone engine management system, this is a non-issue but from the sounds of it you are not. i wanted to know how you are adding fuel into the system. if you method of adding fuel is incorrect, this in combination with the mp3 ecu could likely be the culprit for the damage done to your engine.

for one thing yes im running mp3 ecu yes it have some detonation while in boost but only after 4500. presently im not racing and i keep it out of boost as much as possible because of the ecu. the fuel isnt an issue if you did any research you would know that the na motor and the msp have all the same componentes so there isnt any fuel issues and before you ask yes i have a a/f gauge the knew ecu is on order

You are mis informed a little here. The MP3 and MSP have completely different PCM. MP3 has timing advances and a much more lean FUEL curve. Do some more research or you will be buying a new motor in no time.
